Re: [Chicken-users] Comprehensive documentation rewrite

[Elf]

i was only referring to currently maintained eggs, as i stated in the post, 
and only to those with (L)GPL licensing.  all i SAID was that most 
currently maintained eggs are released under BSD, and how to find the
licence revision for the LGPL eggs that have been ported from elsewhere.
the LGPL ver is what seemed to matter from Leonadro's post, which is why
that was the issue i responded to.   precisely where am i spreading 
misinformation?
